Ken Shamrock’s Nephew Signs With Strikeforce

Two Shamrocks – both of them Hall of Famers in my opinion – still grapple in the octagon; now you can add one more as according to MMAWeekly.com, Ken Shamrock‘s nephew, Jeff Shamrock, has signed a multi-fight deal with the Strikeforce organization; Shamrock’s first bout with Strikeforce is expected to be announced very soon. Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker told MMAWeekly.com, “I am definitely excited to have Ken Shamrock’s nephew as a part of the Strikeforce team. Jeff possesses that incredible Shamrock strength that his family is known for. I expect great things from Jeff and look forward to his professional debut.”

Shamrock is from Ken Shamrock’s Lion Den Reno Elite Fight team, and according to his uncle Ken, “Jeff is a very strong and aggressive fighter. He has been training hard and has developed impressive skills on the mat, including his takedown and submission skills. I have no doubt that Jeff will do extremely well.”
